Have you been given any nicknames by any coworkers?

I was given the nickname “The Beast”. I was overtiming on the overnight shift when I was still a corporal years ago. The captain needed a forced cell move completed and the S.O.R.T. team doesn’t work overnight. They always used the biggest and strongest officers to do them overnight. There’s five officers who go in. The first one has a shield and the other four are etched assigned a limb to subdue. I took a running start, burst into the cell, and rammed the inmate against the wall knocking him unconscious.  I was then called “The Beast” by the supervisor filming the incident. It stuck.

    I've heard of the Richard shrinking gene.  That's the Long Latin spelling.  This gene has the ability to take two inches off one part of your body and add it to another.  It is very common in older men.  If you find you have this gene too, don't worry.  You are in good company. It's when you can no longer see your feet or any part of your lower body you need to start worrying.   If you can't touch them, you are in serious trouble.

    It's a good thing.  Have you been taking care of them? They need spas and massages are wonderful for circulation.  a short cardio workout is good for all body parts in the morning. Have you tried any of those?
    I'm simply looking out for your health, Element.

    You are sweet. I take care of the things I am able to do so. My legs could use a bit of attention.

  • I have had nicknames since I was born, when my grandmother nicknamed me Rocky.  Then, it was Carrot Top, Secret Squirrel, Chip (my friend was "Dale"), and at work it was Red, Chattah, and Ro. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at November 1, 2018 12:59 PM MDT

    I have before but I refuse to answer to people who can't call me by my name, or Big Papa.
